How to use Get-AzKeyVaultSecret in Powershell Azure Function 2.x

How to use Get-AzKeyVaultSecret in Powershell Azure Function 2.x

Taken from Microsoft: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/key-vault/quick-create-powershell

Have you tried dot notation on retrieving those keys?

(Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -vaultName $VaultName -name $KeyName).SecretValueText

If that doesnt work, you may look at this github issue regarding ManagedAppServices: https://github.com/Azure/azure-powershell/issues/8983

Seems to be the same issue youre having.

There is now a new method for this.

$secret = Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName <your-unique-keyvault-name> -Name ExamplePassword
$ssPtr = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($secret.SecretValue)
try {
  $secretValueText = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringBSTR($ssPtr)
} finally {
  [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::ZeroFreeBSTR($ssPtr)
}
Write-Output $secretValueText

The original error is fixed in Azure Functions now.

It is still necessary to retrieve keys that are updated frequently in key vault. To do that, I use this:

(Get-AzKeyVaultSecret MyVaultName -Name MySecretName).secretvalue | ConvertFrom-SecureString -AsPlainText
